Poor turtle! I always feel so sorry for them in this position! What a cruel joke Mother Nature played on turtles! I rate this photograph a 9, but please be nice to the turtles from now on. As for a critical comment, the horizon is a big off centered, not fully at the horizontal line. I suggest using a tripod. -NBT
I'm guessing you couldn't do anything about it, but I would REALLY love this shot if that fence wasn't in the background. I also don't know if you have a big enough image to do this with -- but I wonder how it would look if it were cropped vertically (in effect, cutting the left half of the image out of the picture). That would let you get a little bit of a closer shot on the tortoise's head. (The more I look at it that way, the more I'd personally like it -- maybe I'll talk to you baout getting a copy when the voting's over.) ;-)
Heh heh heh... Hope you turned her back over when you were done. You'll be getting a visit from PETA shortly. The first set of rails makes a great bg, but I'm not sure about the second set and horizon visible beneath. Small nits. Nice work!
No one can argue this subject matter! Poor guy.............. Nice composition, good lighting for what looks like a bright day. You were able to keep the highlights in check quite well. Good Job.
A turtle was my first thought all week. I love this photo. The color and clarity are great. The only issue I see is the fence is distracting. Nice job.
